Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Also the vagus nerve.
That fucking trash. I’ve got vasovagal syncope.
It’s inconsistent, though. For example, never had issues with the numbing shots at the dentist. One day they start giving the shots to numb me up, and next thing I remember they’ve got me sitting up over a trash can trying to clear the vomit I was aspirating on. Scared the shit out of those dentists.
Once while in middle school I lightly nicked a finger with some scissors - barely even bled. All of a sudden I feel nauseous and ask to go to the bathroom. I manage to get out into the hallway before collapsing to the floor, hitting my head at least twice on the way down and traumatizing my classmates who thought I just dropped dead.
Intelligent design my big gay ass. Damn vagus nerve is a dodgy self-destruct mechanism.
You may be a fainting goat. Have you checked for hooves? That's a good sign you may be a fainting goat
I wonder if Baphomet experiences similar issues
Also, the use of caffeine and sometimes other stimulants, usually after they begin to wear off, even (edit: and sometimes especially, due to lack of acquired tolerance) with very infrequent use. Apparently that's not well known, at least not by most of my fucking doctors.
Also paranasal sinuses.
